PLN

PLN/CZK gains for a fourth consecutive day as participants reassess their views on the outlooks for monetary policy decisions from the local central banks. The pair has added 273 pips to last change hands at 5.3954 and bulls set their sights on Jul 12 high of 5.4094. A break above that level would bring into play the 38.2% retracement of the 2020 - 2023 sell-off at 5.4339.
